I think you would also need to consider that many obese 50 plus year olds may well have some level of undiagnosed heart disease, which may not necessarily be recorded as 'underlying illness' but which may affect their ability to recover.

I didn't imply any optimism.

I haven't seen a quote saying he has "improved considerably".
And I thought he was taken in hospital as a "precaution" - then moved to ICU as he "deteriorated".
I had friend in ICU for 10 days - for most of that time he was classed as improving or doing well - I really don't see why someone improving in ICU for 2 days in inconsistent - I would have thought it pretty normal TBH.

Been practicing our infection control drill today.
Nat has started work at the Nightingale as a porter/cleaner. No patients in yet.
He cycles in his own clothes and changes into a uniform at work. Not having any experience of how this works, I was surprised that he brings his uniform home. He is putting it inside 2 plastic bags in his rucksack and tipping it straight into the washing machine by itself as soon as he gets home. Plastic bags straight into wheely bin. He strips off by the back door and his own clothes stay outside and then go in the washing machine when his uniform is done.
Straight upstairs without touching anything and straight into the shower.
Anybody with more experience than me think of any additional measures we could be doing?

I wouldn't be surprised if that % was the same in normal times.
PPE problems today, largely self inflicted and entirely predictable. Here are the figures from Wednesday.
Tested positive - 212
Rested negative - 755
Currently in hospital - 90
Discharged home - 59
Patients in ICU - 12
Deaths - 25

Is there any risk of transfer onto the bike handlebars? Might be worthwhile wiping them with alcohol wipes. Just a thought

Good point. Will add that to the regime
Change the locks
Bypass the plastic bag and need to tip it into the washing machine.
Use a pillow case or one of them reusable cotton bags.
Then all you do is put the whole lot in machine so he only handles/ cut risk of handling down to one ie when he puts them in the bag.
